2: Library of Congress, Madison Building | Front Door | Wally, our tour guide, told me that the trees in this photo are located outside James H. Billington's office who just happens to be the head of the Library of Congress & June's boss. | Our guides navigated through DC expertly avoiding the Saturday morning demonstration that had half of the city blocked off. Our first stop on the W&J Adventure was exclusive admittance into the head librarian's office.

3: Our tour guide, June, has a "day job" at the Library of Congress. This is her very fancy office.

4: My favorite photo with June.

9: June's tour continued via the underground tunnel system between the Madison Building and the Jefferson Building | Wally & David trying to look important. They should have tried harder!

10: The Library of Congress - Jefferson Building is amazing. It is a must see attraction.

12: June, our friendly Adventure Guide, obtained VIP access to the head librarian's formal office. Admittance to this office is not on any of the tours for the general public. Kudos to June for the VIP treatment.
